Why, then the world's mine oyster; Which I with sword will open. The Merry Wives of Windsor Act 2 Scene 2
View quotes by William Shakespeare

It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who at the best, knows in the end the trimph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, at least falls while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
View quotes by Theodore Roosevelt

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important

To err is human; to forgive, divine (An Essay on Criticism)
View quotes by Alexander Pope

It is one thing to show a man that he is in error, and another to put him in possession of truth. (An Essay concerning Human Understanding.)

To err is human, but to really foul things up you need a computer.

Democratic nations must try to find ways to starve the terrorist and the hijacker of the oxygen of publicity on which they depend.

It is well that war is so terrible - we would grow too fond of it
View quotes by Robert E Lee

There's terrific merit in having no sense of humour, no sense of irony, practically no sense of anything at all. If you're born with these so-called defects you have a very good chance of getting to the top.
View quotes by Peter Cook

It is now several months since I promised to give you my reasons for preferring the Bible as a schoolbook to all other compositions. Before I state my arguments, I shall assume the five following propositions:

1 . That Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and that in proportion as mankind adopts its principles and obeys its precepts they will be wise and happy.

2. That a better knowledge of this religion is to be acquired by reading the Bible than in any other way.

3. That the Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

4. That knowledge is most durable, and religious instruction most useful, when imparted in early life.

5. That the Bible, when not read in schools, is seldom read in any subsequent period of life.
- Benjamin Rush, Essays, pp. 93-113, 'A Defence of the Use of the Bible as a School Book'.
View quotes by Benjamin Rush

Marriage hath in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful.
View quotes by Bishop Jeremy Taylor

I was going nuts. We kept putting ourselves in trouble, making error after error. But who cares what I thought? We have won the World Cup.
View quotes by Clive Woodward

He's a tree surgeon who once had to have his arm sewn back on, so facing Thierry Henry won't faze him (on a player for Farnborough Town taking on the might of Arsenal)
View quotes by Graham Westley

The atom bomb is a paper tiger which the United States reactionaries use to scare people. It looks terrible, but in fact it isn't... All reactionaries are paper tigers.
View quotes by Mao Tse-Tung

I say violence is necessary. It is as American as cherry pie.
View quotes by Hubert Geroid Brown

Life is just a bowl of cherries (title of song 1931)
View quotes by Louise Brownstein

Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did (on the strawberry)
View quotes by William Butler

The truth is often a terrible weapon of aggression. It is possible to lie, and even to murder, for the truth.
View quotes by Alfred Adler

Have you noticed there is never any third act of a nightmare? They bring you to a climax of terror and then leave you there. They are the work of poor dramatists.
View quotes by Max Beerbohm

No-one can terrorise a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices
View quotes by Ed Murrow

He disdains all things above his reach, and preferreth all countries before his own.
